Level-set-based inverse lithography for photomask synthesis

open access: yesOptics Express, 2009
Inverse lithography technology (ILT) treats photomask design for microlithography as an inverse mathematical problem. We show how the inverse lithography problem can be addressed as an obstacle reconstruction problem or an extended nonlinear image ...

A Robust Computational Algorithm for Inverse Photomask Synthesis in Optical Projection Lithography [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences, 2012
Inverse lithography technology formulates the photomask synthesis as an inverse mathematical problem. To solve this, we propose a variational functional and develop a robust computational algorithm, where the proposed functional takes into account the ...

From Computational Lithography to Computational Inspection: Inverse Lithography Technology (ILT) and Inverse Inspection Technology (IIT)

ECS Transactions, 2010
For semiconductor manufacturers moving toward advanced technology nodes -32nm, 22nm and below - lithography presents the greatest challenge, because it is fundamentally constrained by basic principles of optical physics. Because no major lithography hardware improvements are expected over the next couple years, Computational Lithography has been ...

Hot-Spots Aware Inverse Lithography Technology

ECS Transactions, 2009
This paper presents a new method of Inverse Lithography Technology (ILT) to accelerate its optimization process and convergence, which involves two steps in iteration: the first step is to find hot-spots in the layout in the optimization process and the second step is to optimize on the hot-spot areas.

Pushing the lithography limit: applying inverse lithography technology (ILT) at the 65nm generation

SPIE Proceedings, 2006
This paper presents the results of applying ILT to SMIC's first 65nm tape out. ILT mathematically determines the mask features that produce the desired on-wafer results for best pattern fidelity, largest process window or an desired combination of both.

Seamless-merging-oriented parallel inverse lithography technology

Journal of Semiconductors, 2009
Inverse lithography technology (ILT), a promising resolution enhancement technology (RET) used in next generations of IC manufacture, has the capability to push lithography to its limit. However, the existing methods of ILT are either time-consuming due to the large layout in a single process, or not accurate enough due to simply block merging in the ...

SRAF rule extraction and insertion based on inverse lithography technology

Optical Microlithography XXXII, 2019
The placement and size of SRAF (sub-resolution assisted feature) can greatly affect the overlapped process window. The time-consuming inverse lithography technology (ILT) can provide the co-optimization for both main pattern and SRAFs, which can guarantee the results with high precision.
